Piklo Booking
Piklo Booking is an online booking system for appointment-based service businesses, including hairdressers, beauty and nail studios, therapists, clinics, coaches, trainers, and class, event and rental providers. It gives businesses a mobile-friendly booking page and a calendar for managing the working day. Clients can book, reschedule or cancel appointments themselves, while email or SMS reminders help communicate upcoming visits. Businesses can take deposits and no-show fees up front using a saved client card. Other tools include classes and courses, waitlists, gift cards, punch cards, a client club and Google review requests. The free core plan includes unlimited staff and locations; paid add-ons include newsletters, website booking chat and a custom-built website. The system helps service providers manage appointments, classes, events and rentals in one place.

SlotSwift
SlotSwift is an online booking page with automatic reminders for solo and small appointment-based businesses: massage therapists, personal trainers, lash and nail techs, barbers, salons, tattoo artists and therapists. Instead of booking clients through Instagram DMs, WhatsApp and phone calls, you share one link (in your Instagram bio, Google profile or website) and clients pick a service, a team member and a free slot themselves, 24/7, with no account or app. Each booking is confirmed by email with a calendar invite, clients get an automatic reminder, and they can reschedule or cancel from a link, so you get fewer no-shows and less messaging. You also get a day, week and month calendar, staff and multiple locations, double-booking prevention, and client records with no-show history. One flat plan, every feature included, no per-staff fees or booking commissions, and a 14-day free trial.

QLess specializes in queue management and appointment scheduling software. Through queue management software, customers are empowered to wait wherever they want: at home, work, or even Starbucks – instead of a crowded lobby. To begin, customers join a virtual queue online. They are given a wait time forecast and timely notifications alert customers as they move to the front of the queue. With appointment scheduling software, customers book an appointment for a future day and time. Meanwhile, you are able to accept walk-ins as schedule openings occur. As the time of the customer’s appointment approaches, QLess automatically places the customer in the virtual queue of your software. Interactive appointment scheduling software offers bi-directional communication, connecting your staff with customers. If a customer is running late, they can request more time. Likewise, your staff can notify the customer if your office is behind schedule.
